This show went out on Saturday afternoons between around 5 and 6pm 
(depending on the season, it could have started as early as 4.45 or 
as late as 5.15) and lasted 50 minutes (the episode in the movie is 
hosted by Jim Davidson, who did so for 7 seasons between 1995 and 
2002)....

Do you realize you could probably make a galleon or two if you 
decided to publish a collection of this and similar trivia in the HP-
movies? I'd buy it!

Do you think there was any particular point to picking The Generation 
Game to play on the telly for this scene? An in-joke for those who 
can figure it out? I mean, PoA is really the beginning of "the 
generation game" for Harry...
